1/3 cup whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup oats, regular and quick and instant, unenriched, dry |

2. Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C). Spray 9-inch pie pan with PAM.
3. Put the oats into a food processor or blender and process until finely ground. Add the remaining dry ingredients and blend well. Transfer to a bowl and add the apple sauce. Stir well until completely combined. Be patient, it will start to look like a ball of dough.
